When the umpire ban himself.
I woke up today to read the most astonishing and heart breaking post written by @Read.Cash and the self ban that follows. What is going on here, when an umpire banned himself what will happen to the game? This may be the question that everyone has in mind at the moment. Is read.cash crashing down just for the sake of some "I don't care" group of people? What will be the way forward from now. These and many more questions going on right now in the mind of users. How did it all started I can really tell it well, I haven't been online for some days as I used to be here. I got to know about the memes madness from the warning post made by @Read.Cash to everyone who participated in a so called memes contest sponsored by @micropresident with $25 up for grabs. It was funny to see that notable writers here follow the trend. To some it was all about having fun, while to many the prize was worth dieing for. What started like a well coordinated contest soon turned into a riot of memes' attack on important personalities on read.cash platform and the BCH ecosystem. The warning post made by @Read.cash was enough to stop the the memes' madness. And true to that, a lot of users who took part in the said contest responded with apologies and deleted their entries. But while this was going on, a more established and respected user threw in a more degenerated and questionable memes post directed to some important persons on read.cash and the BCH ecosystem. @Koush made a post with the title "Are you entertained", a memes post that got @Read.Cash attention. In response to the post @Read.Cash acknowledged and given due respect to @Koush being a notable personality here. But the response posted by the later was heart rending as though @Read.Cash got no right to question him. You can read the conversation below here as copied. **What happened to you, Koush?... Man, how could you fall so low for a few bucks...** Read.Cash Reply https://read.cash/@Read.Cash You think I do it for the money? I never changed. You are just taking something that could have even united the most grumpy people (like me) and try to make another drama out of it. Honestly, it is eye opening to see all these weird super unfirendly, disrespectful edgy and unreasonable people all of a sudden have a change of heart and feel insulted degraded and disgusted. It is so silly and childish, not even the worst meme on here can stoop so low. NOTHING of what I shared is hate-filled. Most of those memes are even older than this event. And I never as a person held back with swear words and I never will. This is part of me and my entire personality. I know people do that political correctness to hide from the truth. Worst are those, that are disrespectful, while using 'flowery' words. Like Mobtwo. You guys really should run the show here. And make the entire communication on here and everywhere else useless and full of underhand attacks, as if this was not 100 x worse than being simply blunt. I am the most loving person on earth, LITERALLY and I won't get robots to tell me otherwise. That surely doesn't mean I have to succumb to almost ridiculous levels of political correctness, that is used to shut people up in the most obviously subjective way possible. You can be happy I managed to keep the swearwords out of here for so long. I die on that hill. I am storeing my articles in a PDF, feel free to ban me, as I can't stand your fake 'neutrality' any longer. You are crying about memes, dude. You realize that? I've seen trashtalk passed around here enough to not give a damn about your opinion of what constitutes 'hate' or 'insults'. That Demesel is a giant obvious analogy to Calvin is pure truth. If you want to shut me up about it, I will only repeat it again. Like I do it with any other truth that PC-people want to hide, once it goes against their narrative. Some of these memes are pure gold. You just took them WAY to serious and I think there is a 'good' reason for that. 🥱 Koush Reply https://read.cash/@Koush *I can't stand your fake 'neutrality' any longer*. We are neutral as long as people don't violate rules. If people violated rules and we don't see it and you did not report it - why do you blame us? Do you think we have time to read 7,500 comments per day? There is a comment posted every 10 seconds, 24 hours per day! Report what you see, that way we can act. It's not like we're allowing this to happen, we just can't be everywhere.

Read.CashReply https://read.cash/@Read.Cash https://read.cash/@Koush/are-you-not-entertained-083584f2 beautiful thank you Koush Reply https://read.cash/@Koush *I've seen trashtalk passed around here enough to not give a damn about your opinion of what constitutes 'hate' or 'insults*'. Why did you not report it? We banned EVERY person that attacked any other person here that we saw. Every single one. Rules are for everybody. Read.Cash Reply https://read.cash/@Read.Cash First of all I don't care to ban people for that. And second, obviously you do not see it as trashtalk. I talk about edgeleords and noisy brats that manage to make borderline trolling with underhanded attacks. I won't ban them for that, but I sure as hell won't let me be shut up to talk back bluntly to them. In this case I made a blunt meme, that is FAR away from being an edge case. Have fun with your arbitrary 'hatespeech' moderation. I don't fall for this leftie crap. Good day. Koush Reply From the above conversation you can see the tension created by the memes' madness. Some took it as opportunity to bring out their vengeance on perceived enemies across the crypto space, thereby letting the cat out of the bag. Now this is what I say, you cannot come to a man's house and start insulting him. He has the right to break your head or drive you out of his house. But instead of taking this idea way, @Read.Cash got infuriated and join the trash show thereby banning himself. What should we expect from now, does this mean that there will not be any super moderator anymore? I know many users are getting anxious right now, if their payment would not be made tonight. There is no need to be anxious, read.cash isn't closing at least not for now. The way forward from my crystal ball. The best of read.cash site is going to envolved from now on. Things are going to be saner here. I can see a read.cash platform coordinated by an automod where any one who break the rules get penalized automatically without warning. Ah, what about him, I mean @Read.Cash will he remain banned? Now he got time to build the system in a way that doesn't depends much on manual effort to control, thus giving him time to do other things while watching as the site progress.

I really hope read.cash will be okay :<
Well, this is a serious warning to everyone to mind what we do better on the platform.
